The holiday season can be full of joy—but also changes in routine, sensory overload, and big emotions. A little preparation can go a long way in supporting your child. ☃ ❄ Offer Choices: Providing options can help increase a sense of control and reduce anxiety (e.g., “Do you want to high-five or hug Grandma?”). ❄ Leverage Visual Schedules: Visuals help set expectations and prepare for changes in routine. Outlining the where and who ahead of time can help set everyone up for success. ❄ Create a Sensory Escape Plan: Identify a quiet, calming space your child can access when things feel overwhelming (e.g., stepping away from a crowded living room into a spare bedroom for a set amount of time). ❄ Prepare Transitional Items: Bring familiar or comforting items to support smoother transitions between activities or environments (e.g., a favorite stuffed animal can ride in the car to Auntie’s house). #NorthArrowABA #ABATherapy #AppliedBehaviorAnalysis

Meet Ally, RBT at our Traverse City location! ✨ Ally brings warmth and curiosity to her role as a Registered Behavior Technician here at North Arrow. She’s passionate about the idea that—just like neurotypical kiddos—no two children with autism are the same. One of her favorite parts of the job is truly getting to know each child she works with: their interests, what supports their learning, and what brings out their biggest smiles. Ally loves noticing all the ways kiddos communicate—“sometimes they say so much without saying anything at all!” 😭💙 Ally shares that her favorite thing about North Arrow is the supportive, team-based atmosphere, where feeling backed by her coworkers makes all the difference. 🌲 Ally makes a difference every day, and we couldn’t be happier to have her! 🌟 #NorthArrowABA #RBT #RegisteredBehaviorTechnician #ABATherapy #StaffSpotlight #Community #TeamAppreciation
